The current-generation Chevrolet Camaro has been a stunner since it arrived in 2010, but the car is no lightweight--weighing in at about 200 pounds more than the Ford Mustang--and surprisingly, for some the styling isn't wild enough.

Well, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering won't stand for that. The crew talked to high-performance dealers across the country and came up with two packages for the Camaro: the Signature Series One and the Signature Series Two. The packages offer more power, less weight and tighter handling with upgraded suspension parts.

The Series One package starts with the LPE Signature body kit. The kit consists of the hood, a heritage grille and grille bar with LPE signature, a front spoiler, side skirts, rear fascia and rear spoiler. Custom Lingenfelter wheels are added, as is a MagnaFlow exhaust system, custom interior bits and a Lingenfelter by Pedders suspension kit that stiffens the ride and decreases unsprung weight.

The Series Two upgrade includes the body kit, custom forged wheels with Nitto tires, Brembo brakes, a Corsa exhaust and the Pedders suspension. For power, the Series Two kit gets a Magnuson TVS2300 intercooled supercharger system and a high-flow air intake. Package purchase includes professional installation, testing and calibration, a chassis dyno report before and after and Lingenfelter's three-year/36,000-mile warranty.

Beyond the full Signature packages, almost all of the parts can be purchased separately. The full body kit can be installed on either the V6 or V8 Camaros, and all of the parts bolt on to factory locations. Lingenfelter also sells full road and drag-racing suspensions for weekend racers.

The company also has a deal with the top performance dealerships in the country, which means you might not see the Signature Series down at Bob's Crazy Car Depot, but all of the parts can be found and purchased from www.lingenfelter.com.

The company is also working on a flat-plane-crank engine that puts out about 850 hp. You can watch a test engine light the headers up like a Christmas tree on YouTube--it's worth a quick look here.
